Excellent walking tour, highlights of Seoul and Korean cultural sites , Jay was a great guide!!!

11 months ago

This was one of the best city and cultural tours I have ever done. Jay Kim was amazing and so knowledgeable we discussed everything from history to politics to food to the different rights movements currently active in Korea. It's a fair bit of walking and standing so bring comfortable shoes. Highly recommend this tour and Jay Kim.

Our guide Jay gave us lots of interesting explanations about the history of the palace, as well as enlightening anecdotes about the city itself. We had some very interesting discussions 🙂
